KADMAR Circular No. 8/2025 – SCA Periodical No. 1/2025 – Exception for “Long Haul” Rebate Requests

The Suez Canal Authority has announced an exception for specific “Long Haul” cases, allowing exemption from the requirement set by Circular No. (4/2013), which mandates that “Long Haul” rebate requests must be submitted at least 48 hours before the vessel’s departure from the origin port. This exception is subject to the following conditions:

1. The “Long Haul” rebate request must be submitted by the local agent before the vessel’s departure from the origin port.
2. The “Exception Request” must be submitted by the local agent before the vessel’s Suez Canal transit via a message through the “E-Long Haul” service on the Suez Canal Authority’s website.

This Periodical will apply to “Long Haul” rebate requests submitted from March 1, 2025.
